For example, with cash for keys you don't give that to them until they are out, BUT they may need help getting out.

KwanzaHi Kwanza, I can help answer this question as I've worked with investors and helped them buy LTRs, MTRs, and STRs (own quite a few myself as well).

@Zeina Awad great question and one that we have helped many new investors like yourself answer.

Upon BP member recommendations, my husband got his real estate license which now helps increase our access and decrease our transaction costs.

I'd imagine Clayton Morris fleeing the United States helps.

I used to help managed STR's in Nashville.

#McCormickI have some Youtube videos (link in my profile) that will help with some of your questions and I'd be happy to have a call to help walk you through the market and what you should consider when looking here.

If you can find that, I would recommend a rehab loan to help accommodate the repair costs and do a modified 'BRRRR', or just sell it when you are done.Is this your first investment? 

I am looking to buy a property in SLC Utah that i would want to try and run as a STR to help offset the cost.

I own several investment properties in Dallas, and have tons of great connections that will help you get started.
